Suggested Use & Directions

Important dosage and safety consideration: The full three-capsule serving provides 25mg vitamin B6 and 485mg supplemental elemental magnesium. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has established an adult upper intake level of 12mg/day for vitamin B6. The NIH lists 350mg/day as the adult upper limit for magnesium from supplements and medications. These reference limits are not identical across authorities, but this product's full serving exceeds both of those respective limits. Do not treat the manufacturer's suggested serving as automatically suitable for everyone. Seek advice from a doctor or pharmacist before using it, particularly for regular or long-term use. Do not independently reduce or increase the dose as a substitute for professional advice.

Who May Consider This Supplement?

This product may be considered by adults who:

• Want a combined magnesium and mineral supplement.
• Prefer a formula containing several magnesium compounds.
• Want additional zinc, vitamin B6 and vitamin D3 in one product.
• Prefer vegan capsules.

However, because of the relatively high amounts of elemental magnesium and vitamin B6, individual suitability should be assessed by a qualified healthcare professional before use.

Warnings & Precautions

• Intended for adults aged 18 and above.
• Do not exceed the recommended daily intake.
• Vitamin B6 caution: The full three-capsule serving supplies 25mg vitamin B6. EFSA's adult upper intake level is 12mg daily. Excessive long-term vitamin B6 intake can cause peripheral neuropathy, which may involve tingling, numbness or nerve-related symptoms.
• Magnesium caution: The full serving supplies 485mg elemental magnesium. Supplemental magnesium can cause diarrhoea, nausea and abdominal cramping.
• People with kidney disease should not use magnesium supplements unless supervised by a qualified healthcare professional.
• Consult a healthcare professional before use if pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or under medical supervision.
• Magnesium may interfere with the absorption of certain antibiotics and oral bisphosphonates. Ask a pharmacist about appropriate separation between doses.
• Do not combine with other magnesium, vitamin B6, zinc or vitamin D supplements without checking your total daily intake.
